About
A funny, frank and provocative solo show about living in a body the world tells you to hate. Leave your diet books at the door.
Do you ever feel like your body takes up too much space in a world that doesn't want to make any room? Katie is fat. She's pretty much always been fat, and probably will be fat forever more. Join her in the 'Cha Cha Slide', munch on some crisps, and have a listen to what it's like to live in body that people can't help but have an opinion on.
Age Guidance: 14+ contains some strong language, some sexual references
